The viola da gamba is a beautiful, serene instrument. Its special sound is mainly due to the elegant construction and the bundes (like the frets on a guitar). It has its own family with a soprano (treble gamba), alto and bass gamba. A lot of beautiful consort (polyphonic) music has been written for this.

The bass viol has 6 or 7 strings and the most beautiful solo music has been written for this through the ages. It can also be heard as a solo instrument in some arias, such as e.g. in the John and Matthew Passion by J.S. Bach.
